}}Barry Squires (born 29 July 1931) is an English former professional footballer who played in the Football League for Birmingham City and Bradford City.[1]

Career

Squires was born in the Sparkhill district of Birmingham, and attended Golden Hillock Road School. He was in the school football team, and also played for his Air Cadets' team, before joining his first senior team, Lye Town. He was on the books of Wolverhampton Wanderers, and had trials with Portsmouth and Bristol City, before Birmingham City took him on as a professional in May 1953. Having to compete with Alex Govan for the outside left position meant Squires had little chance of first-team football.[2] The only appearance he made for the club was on 13 March 1954 in a 2–0 defeat away at Brentford in the Second Division, playing out of position at centre forward.[3]

He then spent a season with Third Division North side Bradford City, for whom he played seven league games, and went on to play non-league football for Yeovil Town,[1] Gloucester City, Kidderminster Harriers, and Gresley Rovers, for whom he scored once in five games playing at left half.[4]
